Lee Tung Street Protest Banner [Pack]


Lee Tung Street Protest Banner
利東街抗議標語
Lee Tung Street (Chinese: 利東街), known as the Wedding Card Street (喜帖街; 囍帖街) by locals, was a street in Wan Chai, Hong Kong. The street was famed in Hong Kong and abroad as a center for publishing and for the manufacturing of wedding cards and other similar items.
As part of an Urban Renewal Authority (URA) project, all interests of Lee Tung Street were resumed by and reverted to the Government of Hong Kong since 1 November 2005, and subsequently demolished in December 2007. The demolition was seen by many as causing irreparable harm to the cultural heritage of Hong Kong.
The site was redeveloped as a luxury shopping and housing development. As with all other URA projects, no original tenants have been resettled on site. (From: Wikipedia[en.wikipedia.org])
These banners were set up in 2007 at Lee Tung Street to protest against the URA redevelopment program. My favorite one is the one that writes "God knows what you are doing (人在做天在看)".
15 different banners with different slogans or texts are in this pack. The banners are raised 5+ meters from the ground, use Move It to further adjust their position.
